2 SAFETY

Take the necessary and required safety precautions, such as safety nets and lifelines when installing from the

outside, safety goggles, gloves, hard hat, etc.

Do not step on the glass.

Falling from height

• When using ladders to go on the roof:

- Ladder in good condition?

- Set up correctly at an angle of 75°?

- Secured below and on top against moving?

- Don’t take heavy material with you on the ladder (3-point contact rule)! If possible,

use a crane to lift the material.

• If you are going on the roof, make sure there is a walking surface that is wide enough and that

supports on the beams of the lower structure.

• When using an aerial work platform: always wear and secure your harness (mandatory)! Leaving

the cage is forbidden.

• Never walk backwards on a roof, always walk forwards.

• Make sure there’s enough light in the working zone.

Low-hanging obstacles and falling loads

• Forbidden to walk under or within a radius of 1 m of a hanging or lifted load.

• Demarcate the danger zone below the zone where there is a risk of material falling down

during the installation of the veranda.

• It is prohibited to enter these danger zones during construction.

Crushing hazard

• All working tools are in good condition, provided with a valid CE label and all necessary safety

regulations. These cannot be removed.

• People who use these working tools are educated for this purpose. Protections are always

present on all working tools. They are in good condition and need to be set correctly.

Tripping/falling

• Safety is key and it begins with order and tidiness. Clean everything immediately, leave nothing

lying around.

• Trash needs to be sorted.

• Be cautious with electric cables (danger of tripping/falling). Never walk backwards!

• Make sure there’s enough light in the working zone.

27/04/2023 5/60

E_MH_Mounting_instructions_Skylux_Climalux_ClimaluxHorizon

Sharp objects

• Make sure your fingers/hands are not pinched and watch out for cuts while handling veranda

parts.

• Be careful where you put your hands during the installation.

• Wearing cut-resistant gloves is mandatory.

Ergonomics

• Always lift loads correctly: bend your knees, move your feet instead of forcing your spine, lift

as close to your body as possible.

• Parts of more than 25 kg must be lifted with at least 2 persons.

Personal protective equipment

• Work clothes, safety shoes and helmet are mandatory for everyone.

• Lifeline and harness are mandatory if the edge is not secured enough or if there are no safety nets below the

veranda roof. They are also necessary when using an aerial working platform.

• Use gloves when handling veranda parts.

• Safety glasses and hearing protection are mandatory when using saws / grinders.

Always perform a Last Minute Risc Analysis!

If in doubt: STOP! Do not take unnecessary risks. Ask your supervisor if needed.

3 GUIDELINES

Safety during construction

Please read this manual carefully.

The installation must be carried out by people with sucient technical knowledge and experience in the area of conservatory

installations (mechanical and electric). The installer must take the required safety measures into account during the

installation such as the use of scaolding and personal protection equipment - safety shoes, helmet (i.e. hard hat), gloves,

safety goggles, etc. - to ensure the work is carried out in a safe environment. During installation, please make sure that the

necessary precautions have been taken to ensure the stability of the unﬁnished construction.

Stability

1) Statik

For roofs (attached or freestanding) that need a Statik, separate mounting instructions & corresponding parts are provided.

2) Construction situation in general

The installer is responsible for the assessment of the appropriate ﬁxing materials for the load and foundation on which the

structure is to be ﬁxed. Please contact your ﬁxing material supplier or specialised engineering consultants in case of doubts.

Skylux cannot be held responsible for the installation or the ﬁxing materials used.

Seal installation

A distinction is made between push-in seals and slide seals.

The seal of a push-in seal is pushed into the proﬁles. The C2CX, C12, C8, CY10 and C31 seals are push-in seals.

The slide seals C1CX and C5 are slid into the proﬁles.

The seals C1CX and C2CX are equipped with an anti-stretch wire that prevents the seal from being stretched during

installation. This technology ensures that the seal cannot shrink after installation.

Avoid the use of silicone and detergent when installing the seals. Plastic sheets can be damaged by these products. Plastic

sheets can result in settlement noise due to temperature ﬂuctuations. This will not aect the guarantee and will not be

accepted as a claim.

Terms, conditions and guarantee

The guarantee is void when the installation instructions provided below are not followed. Not following the instructions and/

or using other parts may have an adverse eect on the safety and life cycle of the product. Variations are not permitted

without written permission of the manufacturer. Our installation instructions manual and ﬁlm are based on the latest level of

4 LOAD CAPACITY GRAPHS

4.1 General considerations

The following pages contain the load graphs for the Climalux proﬁle system. You can use these to determine the

free span of the gutter proﬁles and the supports in relation to the prescribed load.

A distinction is made between Climalux roofs with plastic sheets and Climalux roods with single glazing.

The maximum allowable bending is 1/200 (= 1 cm per 200 cm free span) with plastic sheets.

This includes the weight of the structure and the plastic sheets. Select the graph in relation to the prescribed snow

and wind load. This depends on the region and the orientation.

The maximum allowable bending is 1/300 (= 1 cm per 300 cm free span) with single glazing.

This is including the weight of the structure. In order to determine the total load, add the weight of the glazing to

the prescribed snow and wind load. To determine the weight of the glazing, calculate 2.5 kg per m² and per mm

thickness. Example: single glazing with a thickness of 8 mm weighs 8 x 2.5 = 20 kg/m². After converting into N/

m² x factor 9.81, this results in 20 x 9.81 = 196.20 N/m². Suppose the prescribed snow and wind load is 500 N/m²

and the glazing is 200 N/m², the total load would be approximately 700 N/m². In order to limit the weight of the

glazing, the axis distance between the support proﬁles (AX) is limited to a maximum of 750 mm. The total width of

the roof is divided into equal parts.

The bending of 1/200 of 1/300 is achieved with a maximum load. For example, a gutter support of 5000 mm with

a maximum bending of 1/300 will bend 16.6 mm when loaded. Less if unloaded.

These graphs do not apply with regard to a continuous support or a structure under the gutter proﬁles installed by

the customer.

The gutter proﬁles may put pressure on supporting window proﬁles when installed on top of each other.

A possible bending of the gutter proﬁle above the sliding doors should therefore be taken into account.

When the selected gutter (support) cannot be installed where a certain span or load is concerned, select a gutter

support that can handle a larger span. You could also install an extra post to decrease the free span.

“Span” refers to the distance between the posts. The total width of the roof = the free span + the width of the

posts.

The roof’s supporting posts should always be located at the corners of the roof. We do not recommend moving

the post supports inwards.

Any sunblind installed on the proﬁles are at your own risk and should be included in the calculation as an additional

load.

In case of large spans or loads, the use of reinforcement proﬁles is recommended. These are slid into the

aluminium proﬁles. The reinforced proﬁle V14105 is not supplied. They can be bought at any local hardware store.

We recommend treating the reinforcement proﬁles with an anti-corrosion product.

The selection of required ﬁxing material is dependent on the foundation or the walls. Check whether the

foundation and the walls on which the structure is to be anchored have a sucient load-bearing capacity. The

installer is responsible for the assessment of the appropriate ﬁxing materials for the load and basis on which the

structure is to be ﬁxed. Please contact your ﬁxing material supplier or specialised engineering consultants in case

of doubts. Skylux cannot be held liable for the installation or the ﬁxing material used.

We recommend removing any snow from the roof to prevent accumulation against the wall by the wind. When

snow on a higher roof can slide on to the Climalux roof, measures must be taken to prevent this, for example, by

using snow hooks and snow beams.

You can use the Climafast calculation application to select the correct proﬁles and support in relation to the

dimensions of the Climalux roof, the prescribed load and the glazing.

The latest version of this calculation application can always be downloaded from www.skylux.eu.

4.2 Load capacity of rafters in function of plastic sheets or glass

The graphs below can be used to determine the free span for the rafter DX. This is the maximum length of the

rafter in function of the load and the depth (D) of your roof. The maximum bending is 1/200 (plastic sheets) or

1/300 (glass). E.g.: a bending of 1 cm for a free span of 200 cm or 300 cm. The load is related to the snow and

wind load.

Practical example:

The axis distance (AX) between the rafters is 1000 mm (= for plastic sheets with a width of 980 mm). The depth

(D) of the roof is 3500 mm. Determine the point on the graph “500 N/m² & 1/200”. The maximum rafter length is

4000 mm.

The maximum bending (1/200) with load is 20 mm. Less if unloaded.

The maximum deliverable length of the rafters is 5 metres.

4.3 Load capacity of gutter beams

4.3.1 For roofs with plastic sheets

The graphs below can be used to determine the free span for each type of gutter (support). This is the distance

between your supports (posts) in function of the load and the depth (D) of your roof. The maximum bending is

1/200. The load is related to the snow and wind load.

Practical example:

The roof has a width (B) of 4000 mm and a depth (D) of 3500 mm. The prescribed load is 500 N/m² (~ 50 kg/m²).

The roof is provided with muli-walled plastic sheets.

Determine the point in the “500 N/m² & 1/200” graph and select a gutter (beam) above this point.

There are 3 possibilities according to the graph:

You can choose the gutter GXLX which allows for a free span length (P) of 6200 mm.

Or you can choose the gutter GX with reinforcement VS which allows for a free span length (P) of 4380 mm.

Or you can choose the gutter GX with a maximux span length of 3730 mm. An additional post for support in the

middle is needed in this case.

The span is the distance (P) between the posts. In this example, the width can be 4500 mm where the free span

(P) between the posts = 4500 – (2 x 110) = 4380 mm.

The bending in the middle with a load of 500 N/m² is 1/200 or 400/200 = 20 mm. Less if unloaded.

The maximum deliverable length of the gutter proﬁles is 7 metres.

4.3.2 For roofs with glass

The graphs below can be used to determine the free span for each type of gutter (beam). This is the distance

(P) between your supports (posts) in function of the load and the depth (D) of your roof. The maximum bending

for a construction with glass is 1/300. The load is the sum of the weight of the glazing and the snow and wind load

applied to the roof.

Practical example :

Your roof has a width (B) of 4000 mm and a depth (D) of 4000 mm. The prescribed load is 500 N/m² (~50 kg/m²).

The glazing weighs 25 kg/m² (ca. 250 N/m²). The total load in this case is 750 N/m².

Determine the point on your graph “750 N/m² & 1/300” and choose a gutter (rafer) above this point.

There are 2 possibilities according to the graph:

You can choose the gutter GXLX which allows for a free span length (P) of 4600 mm.

Or you can choose the gutter GX without reinforcement VS for a max. span length of 2750 mm. An additional

post for support in the middle is needed in this case.

The maximum bending (1/300) in the middle with load is 4000/300 = 13.3 mm. Less if unloaded. The maximum

deliverable length of the gutter proﬁles is 7 metres.
